SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 8:1–29 Israel defeated Ai.

In chapter 7, Israel attacked Ai and the soldiers of Ai defeated them. They were discouraged but they repented of their sin. In chapter 8, God told Joshua to attack Ai again. This time, the Israelites were victorious and defeated Ai.

Verses 8:1–9 describe Joshua’s preparations to attack Ai, with details about the ambush. The soldiers in the ambush left by night ahead of the other soldiers. Verses 8:10–27 describe the movement of the soldiers, and the defeat of Ai. Verses 8:28–29 is a summary of the story.

Here are some other possible section headings:

The fall and destruction of Ai

Israel conquered Ai

8:5a

Then I and all the troops with me will advance on the city.

Then I and all the troops with me: The phrase all the troops with me refers to the ten thousand Israelite soldiers who stayed with Joshua and who did not hide behind Ai.

will advance on the city: The phrase will advance on the city indicates that Joshua and the soldiers with him will move toward the town as if they are going to attack it.

8:5b

When they come out against us as they did the first time,

When: The Hebrew word that the BSB translates as When introduces the next event in the storyline.

they come out against us: The clause they come out against us indicates that the soldiers of Ai will come out of the town gate to attack the Israelite soldiers.

us: The word us is exclusive. Joshua spoke to the soldiers who were not with him.

Here is another way to translate this phrase:

when they come out of the town to attack us(excl)

as they did the first time: The phrase as they did the first time refers to the first time that the Israelites tried to capture Ai in 7:4–5. Some English versions place this phrase at the end of verse 5c. For example:

When the men of Ai come out against us, we will turn and run, just as we did the first time. (GNT)

8:5c

we will flee from them.

we will flee from them: The clause we will flee from them indicates that the soldiers who are with Joshua will run away from the soldiers of Ai.

Here is another way to translate this phrase:

we(excl) will run away from them

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

בָּ⁠רִֽאשֹׁנָ֔ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I and=all the,people which/who [is]_with,me approach to/towards the=city and=it_was that/for/because/then/when come_out to,meet,us just=as at,[time] and,we_will_flee before,,them )

Joshua is using the adjective first as a noun. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase here and in the next verse. Alternate translation: [the first time] or [at the first time]

Note 2 topic: translate-ordinal

בָּ⁠רִֽאשֹׁנָ֔ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I and=all the,people which/who [is]_with,me approach to/towards the=city and=it_was that/for/because/then/when come_out to,meet,us just=as at,[time] and,we_will_flee before,,them )

If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you could use an equivalent expression to express the meaning here and in the next verse. Alternate translation: [before]
